When X-rayed, the SCBA sets look like operational sets and as such airline staff often
assume that the sets are pressurised. In order to reduce travel delay it is best to
show/inform staff prior to check in. All batteries should also be removed from the
support case and carried on board the aircraft.
13. Travel advice and warnings
In addition to travel advice
about batteries (see Safety
– Travelling with batteries),
when travelling with the
FLAIM Trainer system on
aircraft it is important to
notify check-in staff about
the equipment.
